From: Chris Rees To: Ed Schouten Cc: bug-followup@freebsd.org Subject: Re: ports/162049: The Ports tree lacks a framework to restart services Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 09:55:19 +0100 This has been discussed several times, without a satisfactory answer unfortunately. You're right, not restarting the apache daemons is a security risk, but equally it's a risk to restart them automatically on upgrade in case it chokes on the config files etc. Perhaps a wider audience may be found on ports@?
